20.4. Limitations
This section lists the limitations of using Red Hat Storage Object Store:
- Object NameObject Store imposes the following constraints on the object name to maintain the compatibility with network file access:
- Object names must not be prefixed or suffixed by a '/' character. For example,
a/b/ - Object names must not have contiguous multiple '/' characters. For example,
a//b
- Account Management
- Object Store does not allow account management even though OpenStack Swift allows the management of accounts. This limitation is because Object Store treats
accountsequivalent to the Red Hat Storage volumes. - Object Store does not support account names (i.e. Red Hat Storage volume names) having an underscore.
- In Object Store, every account must map to a Red Hat Storage volume.
- Subdirectory ListingHeaders
X-Content-Type: application/directoryandX-Content-Length: 0can be used to create subdirectory objects under a container, but GET request on a subdirectory would not list all the objects under it.
